VIRGINIA TRooPs TO GO NoRTH.-The

anniversary Of the PRONUNCIATION of the Con-
sliuticu as an escort to Governor Lee. AS

nent promoters of the adoption of the Con.
slituion, the board thought the State should
hmvc some representation on such notable
occasion, hence its action. Among the
companies orde,ed to go to Philadelphia is
tho Alexandria Light Infantry, and Capt.
Mushbach to day notified the members OF
his company oil the order. 1t is necessary
that fifty men shall 60 and the State pays
ali expenses, beside which the city of Phi!a-
delphia allows fifty cents day to each sol

will go have rot been determined, but it is
probable that one company from WiDches-
Ter, Portsmouth, and Richmond will be sent,
under command of Major Nash. of the
Fourth Virginia regiment. The a. l. l. will
probably leave here on Wednesday next and

Success and FAilure in Peach
(Mlt0re.

The conditions of failure in peach
growing, concisc.y stated, are:
l.. a wet soil, or one that from
auv cause holds water around the
roots Of the trees, whether the land
is situated high CT low.
>. Excessive fertility, while the
trees are young. whether it be secur'
ed in the natural condition of the
soil or by the ingenuity of man.
3. Severe cutting back of the
Young growth each year, thus dwarf
ing the tree and robbing it Of much
natwal vitality.
I. Allowing trees to oyerbear,
and tl,us exhaust their vitality by a
; single crop Of fruits.
5. BY deficient and improper cul.
tlvation.
On the other hand. the conditions
OF edcccss in peach growing. are:
|. An elevated incation that ls
not suhje ct to late frosts in the
spring or early frosts in the fall.
9. 4 warm and moderately fertile
soil that is we'll drained by nature.
Artificial drainage may prove sue
cessful. but its utility has not yet
hecn fully demonstrated in this re-
gion. i.
3. Thorough cultivation, without
until the trees come into
bearing, then combine the two so as
10 supply all the depletion produced
N the soil by growth Of trees aud

4. Never let a tree overbear.
5. Continue cult vation until the

mer, even if it continues until Sep
